My first Twitch stream of Let's Make a Character. This week, I made a bard for GURPS Dungeon Fantasy.﻿ I know the sound is crap; I'll work on it for next time. If you like it, consider supporting my Patreon.

Here's the boss zombie from the most recent session of my GURPS Zombies game. A combination of tight quarters and very poor rolls on a couple explosives meant this guy stayed up and terrorized them for a while.

I’m liking this game a lot. For the zombies, I’m shamelessly ripping off the Left 4 Dead video game franchise. (They’ve already encountered Hunters and a Tank modified with some mutations from GURPS After the End.) However, I’m leaning more on the survival resource-management side of things for campaign tension. Thi…
